    lol he just needs a little bit of coaching and a system to thrive in thats all,

    good 3pt shooter, great lob target, all things that contribute to winning...but hes not harden or jokic.... you can not give him the ball and say go get the buckets or be a playmaker or create offense...

    he needs to be set with the ball in his places...in that role he can be a beast like a rich mans capela.... he just needs a coach that will hold him accountable, to set good picks and be more aware and active on defense, to raise the hand when the player near him has the ball and contest....he has all the tools to be a very good defender...

    yall thought this team is trash and lacks talent when we were 1-17 because of bad coaching.... its the same thing with wood....silas bad coaching depreciated wood...i dont expect any replacement for wood will play any better under silas if silas even allows him to play enough minutes of course...

    This team is trash and we beat up on a bunch of bad teams. Wouldn't be shocked if we lost 15 more games. All I'm saying is I like Cristian Wood as a player in his current contract. But once he gets 25-30 million I'd rather we just not have him. Tillman is too cheap for us to win with Wood making that much. That's the only reason I think he should be traded. Because you know we won't go into the luxury tax for any team, and what if Wood ends up preventing us from resigning one of our young rookies.

    is it possible that he is older than his documented age?

    Sengun is just so reliable, you know that you'll get hustle, good screens and better passes when he's on the floor. While he might not have had his best statistical game against the Hawks, closing the game with him proved yet again that he is a winning basketball player.

    Still only 19!

    can’t believe he’s so young, do you know how scary he will be in 3 years? Sheesh.

    He could be here another 10 years and he'd still be under 30. Insane to think about his upside.

    Nope , that was a thing at 40's in rural areas parents tend to record their child when s/he able to walk but not any more. especially after born you needed to be assigned by a family doctor who works for gov.

    He is our future franchise guy. Love Green and he will learn. I’m sure we will love our next rookie but you know basketball, Senguns talents are not taught and to see this at 19. Yikes.

    Saw the game against Atlanta. The moment Wood hit the bench and Sengun came off it the team just went on a run.

    He's just smarter than anyone else on the court, helps that he gives as much effort as the pogo-stick collection of JayGup and KJ.

    If he and Wood can't work out on the court together, trade Wood.

    I want to see green and senguin grow up together. I think if they can develop a chemistry and then be surrounded by shooters, they can do things. I am not saying they will be exactly like them but the model would be jokic and Murray.

    Now that I'm getting older, I don't like to think about sports in such long timeframes.

    Please delete this post and thank you in advance. :confused:

    Is there a rookie that's looked more impressive than Sengun right now? I haven't followed them all, but even if there is, he's got to be top-3 right now.

    I am always reminded when I watch him of how he's supposedly insanely flexible... like, his body is just very used to moving in unusual ways, maybe (?)
